McMurtry Spéirling PURE : Only 100 People Can Buy This $1.3M 1-seater That Drives Upside Down - autojosh

McMurtry has reveal the production form of the Spéirling PURE—its single-seater, Batmobile lookalike electric hyper track car that enables any driver to experience F1-level performance through the brand’s patented Downforce-on-Demand technology.

Just 100 units of the single-seater Spéirling PURE will be hand-built at McMurtry’s state-of-the-art factory in the Cotswolds, England. Each is priced at £995k (approximately $1.3 million/€1.15 million plus local taxes, shipping and options).





Compared to prototype models, the production form boasts 95 percent new components, including a new 100kWh battery-pack (up from 60kWh) and increased regenerative braking energy recovery, up to 200kW at all states of charge.

Thanks McMurtry’s fan-based downforce system, Spéirling PURE’s two high-speed fans produces up to 2000kg of Downforce-on-Demand from 0mph, an immense suction beneath that allows owners to push the car to its limits at 3g in corners and at 3g under braking.

Inside, it boasts a custom moulded seat, bespoke racing-style steering wheel designed to provide access to key controls while driving at speed. Additionally, a central screen shows information such as power and fan settings, state of charge and speed.

All-electric Spéirling PURE can be recharged from 20%-95% in 20-60 minutes, though McMurtry offers an optional portable 120kW output powerbank to allow owners to charge their Spéirling PURE at any venue.

With 0-60mph in 1.55 seconds (with one foot roll out), the Spéirling PURE with 1000-hp is the world’s fastest accelerating production car. It has top-speed of 190mph (305kmh).





Named after the Gaelic word for ‘thunderstorm’, prototype model of Spéirling PURE first captured global attention in 2022 for setting a new record for the quickest run up at the famed hill-climb at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed.

Last year, another prototype not only shattered the Top Gear Test Track record—once held by the 2004 Renault F1 car—but also broke new ground to become the first car to ever drive upside down.
